Key Functions & Benefits

  • Analgesia: It is significantly more potent than morphine, with some studies finding it to be 30-40 times, or even up to 200-280 times more potent after intracerebroventricular injection in animal models.
  • Receptor binding: It is a full agonist for μ-opioid receptors but has low affinity for δ and κ receptors, which may be a reason it shows less propensity for some side effects like tolerance and dependence compared to morphine.
  • Neurotransmitter modulation: It inhibits neuronal firing in the thalamus that is evoked by noxious stimuli and can also influence the release of pituitary hormones.
